While I mainly agree with your other arguments, I don't see why you 
would need the powere of several stars unless you want to put the 
beacons at the same distance as the pulsars. If you want a set of 
beacons just to cover a limited volume of space, you could put them 
much nearer and use directional emitters, both of which drastically 
reduces the power requirements.
